I live in a state where helmets are mandatory. I used to live in Illinois where they were not. Over the years I've grown accustomed to not wearing a helmet unless it got to be cool outside. I hate wearing a helmet in anything over 80 degrees outside. I cannot ride due to heat being kept inside my helmet.
My question is, can I drill extra vent holes in my helmet for extra air circulation and where, and still be legal? I don't care about damaging the integrity of the helmet, I just need relief from the heat. Has anyone done this and does it work? I'm riding a trike and in a few states, I don't need a helmet for three wheels, only two. Does anyone know if this will work? I'm sure the majority of police wouldn't even question this, because they wouldn't know themselves.
